1 Image Based Measurement of ength and Distance of an Inaccessible Object Md. Imdadul Islam 1, Mahbubul Alam 2, Sarnali Basak 3, Md. Al-Amin Khandaker 4, S M Raihan Azim 5 Abstract Sometimes it is necessary to measure the length of an object or its distance from a particular location when it is difficult to access the location of the object even not at all accessible. In this paper we proposed an image based measurement technique of such an object and its distance. The technique is very simple, only a digital camera, a wooden bar and three ASERs of intense beam are necessary. Entire measurement is taken ignoring the focal length of the camera but the result provides above 95% accuracy. Such measurement technique; for example is essential for a civil engineer to take approximate measurement before work plan even for a zoologist to measure the size of a wild animal which cannot be caught. Keywords Distance Measurement, Pixel-based ength Measurement, OS, Numerical Integration 1. Introduction If someone is asked to measure the size of an object or its distance from a particular point, the most realistic and easiest thinking is to use a measuring tape. If the length of the object or its distance is very large then civil engineering survey is the optimum solution. Although such survey provides very accurate results but sometimes it is necessary to take an approximate initial measured data for preplan (before mobilization surveying equipment). In this paper work we introduce very low cost equipment, based on image processing technique at the expense of accuracy. Md. Imdadul Islam, Computer Science and Engineering, Mahbubul Alam, Computer Science and Engineering, Sarnali Basak, Computer Science and Engineering, Md. Al-Amin Khandaker, Computer Science and Engineering, S M Raihan Azim, Computer Science and Engineering, 123 Very few research papers are found pertinent to this work. Only four papers are found (not very closed to our analysis) about measurement of length of a fish. The basic principle of these papers are discussed here as the previous literature. The measurement of distance of an object covering this paper is a newly proposed model. In [1] first of all, the edge of the fish is determined which is then splitted into 100 equidistance segments. The center and principle axis of the resultant polygon is determined using moment integration. The result of the moment provides the actual orientation of the fish. The next step is to draw a set of horizontal and vertical lines with respect to the principle axis. Finally the length of the fish is measured along the central axis of the fish taking 8 points on the axis. A cost effective and faster method of measurement of length of fish is proposed in [2]. First of all preprocessing is done on the image to detect the head and tail of fish using canny edge detection, scale-map and sub-segments using a relevance model of [3]. ength of the fish is then measured considering, bending ratio plot, corner factor, focal length (f) and mean object distance (O). Entire procedure is given in block diagram in [3] and the authors of claims 95% accuracy of their result. In [4] the author develops software named AnalyzingDigitalImages to measure the length of an object, using its image. The paper is organized like, section 2 provides the methodology of the proposed model with mathematical formulation, section 3 deals with image based results on several objects, and finally section 4 concludes the entire analysis. 2. Methodology The procedure regarding to the implementation of physical equipment, extraction of the image and the corresponding measurements can be explained with following seven steps: Step 1. Two ASERs of intense beam are placed at 1ft apart on a wooden bar. They are attached on the bar with adhesive material so precisely that the beams emitted are parallel. Step 2. aser beams are projected on an arbitrary object. The object (the major axis of the object) and
2 the beam should be (approximately) mutually perpendicular. Step 3. Image of the object (including the beam spot) is taken by high resolution digital camera. The camera should be placed on the wooden bar at the midpoint between the ASERs. Step 4. Image is extracted using imtool( file name of the image with extension ) function under MATAB 9.x or above version. Step 5. Using pixel based distance measurement tools, the size of the object is measured according to fig.2 and corresponding condition is: i is the maximum when θ i 0 and this maximum length is the actual length of the object. bar where the separation between them is 1ft like step-1, and the third beam makes an angle α (we recommend to take α below 10 0 ) with the direction of first two parallel beams like fig.3. Step 7. Image of the object (including the three beam spots) is taken by high resolution digital camera. The image is extracted like step-4 under MATAB software. Here both and are known therefore l can be calculated from pixel based measurement tool. Now, the distance of the object, l x. tan ASER-1 ASER-2 ASER-3 aser-1 aser-2 α x θ max (a) θ (b) θ Fig.3 Distance measurement apparatus l 3. Results In this paper work we first considered a smooth object of uniform and periodic structure. The line of sight (OS) of the camera is placed parallel to horizontal where as the object is perpendicular to the OS of camera. We used high resolution camera of, pixels and of size 5.7MB. We first select a vertical wall like fig.4 and the snap was taken 10ft ahead of the wall. The width of bricks is measured in number of pixels. The widths are found almost same for all the bricks. The small variation occurs because of angular variation of sides of the object and irregular width of adhesive element between bricks. Fig. 2(a)&(b) Measurement of size of an object To measure the distance between the object and the location of experiment we have to follow the following procedure: Step 6. Three ASER beams are projected on the object two beams are perpendicular to the wooden 124 Fig.4 Non-uniform wall
3 width of two bricks in pixels International Journal of Advanced Computer Research (ISSN (print): ISSN (online): ) The situation is complexly different if the OS of the camera is slant w.r.t. the horizontal. Fig.5 shows more precise brick wall where the OS of the camera is placed 15 0 with respect to the horizontal plane. The variation of width of the bricks is visualized from the figure. To observe the profile of such variation, the width of bricks is plotted against the distance in number of bricks shown in fig.3. Fitting the data with 3 rd order polynomial, it is found that the deviation in width with distance is almost linear. Fig.6(b). Door with uniform curving Fig.5 (a) Uniform wall et us now apply the above technique on the most uniform structure of Jahangirnagar university campus which is the Shahid Minar. For the case of horizontal OS a snap is taken 50ft away from it and the variation width of bricks from top to bottom is found almost same like fig Measured data Polynomial fit distance in unit of bricks Fig.5(b) Width of bricks vs the distance of the number of bricks The phenomena of slant OS is also visualized from fig.6 where grill of window and door of straight curving are used. In both cases the snap is taken 10 ft away from the object at an angle of 15 0 w.r.t. horizontal. Fig.6(a) Uniform window grill 125 Fig.7 OS is horizontal Finally three snaps of the Shahid Minar is taken 30ft away from it at 0 0, 15 0 and 30 0 w.r.t. horizontal line. A closed view of the image of 30 0 case is shown in fig.8(a) where the variation in length of bricks are visualized. The profile of pixels/brick vs. distance along the object is plotted for three images shown in fig. 8(b). All the curves are found linear. The variation of width of a brick is found very small within 50ft when the OS of the camera is perpendicular to the object. Since the bricks are squeezed linearly, applying the regression of 3 rd order polynomial we got the constant rate of squeeze, S = Therefore the distance measured by the proposed technique should be divided by the factor S.
4 Fig.8(a) OS is 30 0 with respect to horizontal Fig.10 Height measurement of a person et us introduce some application example pertinent to the paper. The first example is the measurement of the height of a man like fig.10. The measured height of the man, h = (4554.4/762.38) 1 = 5.97ft; whet the actual height is 5ft and 11 inches. Therefore the accuracy is well satisfactory. Our second example is the measurement of height of a column of a building shown in fig.11. Fig.8(b) The variation of width of a brick w.r.t. for different height Applying the ASER spot at 1ft apart on the Shahid Minar we got the distance between them equal to 70 pixels and the height of the tower above the platform is found 4508 pixels shown in fig.9. Now the height of the tower, h = /70 = ft. Using the factor S, the true height will be, /S=66.749ft. This factor can be ignored for measurement of a small object like fig.10 and 11. Fig.11 Height measurement of a pillar of a building The measured height of the column= (4080/282)/1.5 = 10.79ft; where the exact height = 10.5ft. Our third example is the measurement of length of a curved body based on piece wise linear model like fig.12. Smaller the segments more accurate the result will be like the trapezoidal method of numerical integration. Fig.9 Measurement of height 126 Fig.12 Piece wise linear approximation

Now from the variation of number of pixel between two aser spots (from consecutive video frame) per unit time will give the indication of its velocity. References [1] D.J. White, C.

In fig.13(a) the geometry of right angle triangle is found like, = / = ft, l = 1f and α=10 0. Now the distance measured by apparatus, x = /tan(α) = /0.173 = 13.79ft. The exact length is found 14.5ft. Now the error, ε = ( /14.5) = 4.89%. From fig. 13(b) we got the error ε = 4.63%. 4. Conclusions aser spots are found very blur on the image while taking readings on day light. Therefore very intense aser beam is necessary to take reading on day light. Edge detection technique or contrast enhancement can also be applied (followed by some preprocess) to locate the blur aser spot. The concept of the paper can be applied to measure the length of a straight road from the profile of variation of its width with distance. The entire work can be extended to measure the velocity of a vehicle along a straight road taking 127 Md.
